Description

A round-bodied jug with a short flared neck and a strap handle stands on a pale surface against a plain grey background. The body is covered in dark painted decoration: concentric bands, herringbone chevrons, a spoked wheel motif on the left and a diamond lattice on the right. A crack runs across the body and small paper tags are stuck to the base.
